Merge branch 'x86-efi-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull x86 EFI changes from Ingo Molnar:
 "Main changes:

   - Add support for earlyprintk=efi which uses the EFI framebuffer.
     Very useful for debugging boot problems.

   - EFI stub support for large memory maps (more than 128 entries)

   - EFI ARM support - this was mostly done by generalizing x86 <-> ARM
     platform differences, such as by moving x86 EFI code into
     drivers/firmware/efi/ and sharing it with ARM.

   - Documentation updates

   - misc fixes"
